2008 Australian Open

[kidskillz858]

I stayed up up late last night to what Maria Sharpovia dominate & destroy Justine Henin.I didnt go to bed until 2:45am last night and had to be & workby 8:30am today.With that said though that was easily the best tennis I've seen played this year so far.Also tennis on ESPN2 HD is

Damn I thought Henin would claw back after 5-4 down..

Sharapova was wow amazing.

I hope Ana goes through

Exactly!

I've followed Roddick's career from the start and he was never that good. He has the serve and that's it. Dude got hyped up when he had thatamazing run in the summer of 03 where he won the US Open. That was a great accomplishment but few people talked about how one dimensional his game is.

Ana Ivanovic > *

Looking forward to the Federer/Blake match later

@ the possibility of an all Serbian women's final.

And Djoko running Ferrer out of this first set.

 

[kiddin like jason]

Good lord, Ferrer is getting handled.

 

[kiddin like jason]

This is hilarious. Ferrer might not win a single game in this match.

 

[jville819]

Djoko is manhandling Ferrer out there

 

[ultrasur1]

i felt bad for ferrer until he started rallying in the third set.

djokovic slayed him, but he's gonna need more steam in his upcoming games.

 

[illmaticsoulchild]

Whoever faces Djokovic in the semi-finals better bring the kitchen sink. I'm obviously rooting for Federer, but Blake is having a great Slam, and Novak andRafa are dissecting the competition one by one.

Like I said before, this may be one of his toughest challenges yet.

 

[ultrasur1]

damn, mary carillo has been on the rag throughout this whole game.

sounding like debbie downer.

blake is keeping up somewhat, but federer will prevail as usual. just too in control

 

[ultrasur1]

good games tonight.

maria sharapova vs jelena jankovic

ivanovic vs hantuchova

then

nadal vs tsonga (but smh @ 3:30am est)

 

[illmaticsoulchild]

Jelena didn't stand a chance.. whoever is coming out of the Ivanovic and Hantuchova match is toast.

I'm gonna go on a limb and say Tsonga wins tonight. For the past 2 years we've had surprise players make it to the Final (Baghdatis and Gonzo) and thiswould complete hat trick.

Maria and Ana in the Final, Maria in 2

Can't even make a call on the Federer and Djokovic match. It's gonna be a toss up. I do think whoever wins that match will win the entire thing though.

This is a great start to the tennis season. People pretty much gave up on the older players to dethrone Federer and were waiting for the new crop of talent.Well, now they've arrived in full force and this will be Roger's toughest year. I'm a huge Federer fan and seeing him pushed on a consistent basisis something I've been waiting for.

 

[jdb1523]

I like how the guys who thought I was crazy calling Sharapova here are nowhere to be found. She's taking it in 2...

And Federer/Djokovic may be the best match we see all tournament. While a Federer fan, I'd love to see Djokovic pull this one off

 

[fvargas2000]

Do you guys think I should drop 5 bills to win 250 saying Federed Takes it? Aside, My little bro wants to bet me my cg 3's for his fire reds saying nadaltakes it. lol

 

[urban ballerz]

ivanovic

come on ana!

WOOOOOOOOOO MY GIRL ANA WON IT!!!!

 

[ultrasur1]

this turned into a good game.

i was sure it was gonna end in two sets

it still looks like hantuchova will prevail.

i need to move to serbia.

 

[frank 7he t4nk]

Go Ana! Man, she is so hot.

 

[ultrasur1]

wow, ivanovic played her rear off for that win.

hard fought. squeals like a damn sow though. hantuchova was ice cold with that handshake.

sharapova will clean the court with her the way she's been playing.

 

[illmaticsoulchild]

Really wanted to see Daniela win this one, but the better player did win. Ana is not looking good (play-wise) so her chances are slim to none that she'llbeat Maria (who is looking good play-wise among other things).

Not going to be watching the Tsonga and Nadal match, but I'm still sticking to my prediction, Tsonga in 4.

See you guys tomorrow for Djoko and Fed...

 

[birdsiview]

I love women's tennis.

 

[ghettokrnxxx]

Does anyone have a streaming live

of ana ivanoic i was just watching it and espn360 cut me off

Man ana is $!!+*+* hot,

 

[ultrasur1]

this tsonga kid is super nice.

he's making nadal look a little weak right now.

 

[tsamshox]

Tsonga is a beast! Dude out there lookin' like Muhammed Ali and #@!#

 

[frank 7he t4nk]

Tsonga with the first set!
